How to play Green Hell on Mac

Based and developed on Unity by Creepy Jar, Green Hell is a first-person survival video game taking place inside of the Amazon rainforest. The game narrates the story of Jake Higgins, anthropologist and rainforest researcher who finds himself awaken around the jungle next to the Amazon river. He, therefore, tries to adapt and survive in the wild environment whilst being in search of his linguist-wife Mia, who got lost on her trip to the closeby village. An open-world simulation forces players to gather raw materials along with food resources to shelter from severe jungle conditions and maintain health. Hallucinations and other physical changes are all post-survival effects impacted by a constantly changing environment. Players must sleep and keep track of their vitals via a smartwatch worn by the character throughout his journey. Poisonous animals, as well as inedible foods, will also challenge you down along your jungle survival. Green Hell is about submerging into a wild world full of dangers and risks. If you are ready to accept this challenge, Green Hell can be officially played on Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox series. Although there is no Mac around this list, we are still going to launch it regardless. For this, read our tutorial below.

Play Green Hell on Mac with BootCamp

This method is simple but time-consuming. If your Mac meets all the system requirements above, this is probably the best way to play Green Hell for now. You need to set up a dual boot of Windows and Mac via BootCamp. BootCamp allows users to choose the system to work in on startup, however, you won’t be able to switch between systems like in Parallels. You will need to reboot your machine every time you switch from Mac to Windows and vice versa. Remember that Mac is just a computer, that uses common processors, RAM, disks, and other components. So you can install Windows on Mac by allocating disc space of a minimum of 64 Gb (to be able to run Windows and a couple of games). To set up Windows via BootCamp, please, do the following:

For OS X El Capitan 10.11 or later

Mention, that for MacOS versions prior to OS X El Capitan 10.11 you will need to create bootable Windows USB.

1. Download Windows ISO file
2. Open Boot Camp Assistant (Go to Applications > Utilities)
3. Define the Windows partition size, choose downloaded Windows ISO file
4. Format Windows partition and go through all Windows installation steps
5. When Windows boots for the first time, follow on-screen instructions to install Boot Camp and Windows support software (drivers)
